Answer: I believe the answer is 3.

Explanation:

a wood cutter has 1/4 + 2/4 + 3/4 So we add those up to get 6/4.

Then he buys the same amount again which would make 12/4.

We are not done probably, so we MUST simplify.

how many times can 4 fit into 12? 3! so we have whole number 3 and since 4 fit into 12 3 times perfectly all we have is 3
